A/G - Pallet Rack Terminology

Pallet Rack Terminology from A&A Surplus Inc.

If you were to compile a list of pallet rack terminology, you would literally find thousands of terms relating to pallet rack. Pallet rack may seem like a simple enough concept—basically shelving for merchandise and other commercial applications—but in reality, pallet rack is a complicated business not to be taken lightly. As an example, here is a very basic list of pallet rack terminology:

Upright frames—the vertical columns that support the shelving and pallets

Horizontal beams—the horizontal bars that are either used as shelves, or support shelves and pallets

Pallets—a flat square or rectangular structure that is used to support goods while being lifted and moved by a forklift or pallet jack.

Low density—a type of pallet rack storage that favors the ability to find, select, and reach goods, instead of the ability to store goods in a dense fashion

High density—a type of pallet rack storage that favors packing a large amount of goods in a small space, but the goods are less accessible

Supply chain logistics management—controlling the efficient and effective movement and storage of goods from manufacture to pallet rack to consumption

Warehouse inventory labels—signage and labels used to identify everything from safety issues in the warehouse to items stored on the pallets

The experts at A&A Surplus Inc. are well-versed and experienced in all pallet rack terminology. Whenever you have a question about pallet rack terminology or other pallet rack needs, please call us.
